I have been off the air for a while.. My computer has been away for repairs and was a bit of a mess before that. The past few days have been very stressful, as I have had to take my car to the panel beaters for repairs to some scratched paint from a bump a number of weeks ago. It made me realize that my capacity to cope with stress remains under developed. It is a relief to have the car and the computer back now and the internet connection working as well.
I am house sitting the resident dog - a Jack Russell - until next Wednesday. Not too hard, feeding and water, and some tablets that he needs to take.
I wish I could say that life is improving, but often all I can feel are the bumps that come along the way. I do have some new friends though, which has been a joy. I am very thankful for the friends who encourage me so much in so many areas.

It is Wednesday already
Why is it that just when you turn the computer on and want to begin doing some work the VIRUS SCAN starts and puts everything in a holding pattern for 2 minutes for every action. It never did that with XP - goes to show there are some difficulties with Vista - although there are some things I like about it too.
I have seen some people I really like today and some of them were little people. Nearly 4, and 6. It reminded me I need to interact with little people more often than I do. Thing is, when I see them being whiny or screeching in shopping centres or cafes, I just want their parents to take them away.... far, far, far away - but somehow, when I have a connection with them it makes a difference.
I am sitting here with a shawl, a blankie and hot water bottle and the central heating is just beginning to make the house a bit warm - but then I'm going out shortly. It has been drizzling all morning - real winter weather.
Won't get a sleep this afternoon - or at least not til later. Going to visit a very lovely elderly lady who is nearly blind, has had one leg amputated (for sometime), and some chest complaints - but she is very warm and friendly and I'm looking forward to getting to know her and her story better.
